Drain Log: from paper readings to a digital record
Drain Log is a web application for recording surgical-drain readings, viewing automatic daily totals, and preparing a report for a care team.
The need
Paper worksheets leave patients to organize readings and calculate totals by hand. Drain Log grew from a real family experience with that process and the need for a clear record to bring to care-team conversations.
What the product provides
- Separate readings for each configured drain.
- Automatic daily totals and a history view with editable readings.
- Readings saved in the user’s browser, with JSON backup and restore.
- After staff approval, report previews and a choice to email a PDF to the approving staff member.
The application puts recording, reviewing, and preparing a report in one workflow. The user chooses when to share a report. Tracking does not require a patient account or payment card.
